Gerard might have been damaged already before getting in the fight but there is as massive head butt in the fight that started all the problems

Don't know if something was wrong before the fight, but there was no massive headbutt. After seeing the replay, the butt was nowhere near hard enough to contribute to the damage Gerald sustained. I still have the live fight on tape. The rabbit punches, and Benn's regular contributed to all of the damage.

"Wait until we get to
the press conference. We gonna see, because I wish that mother****er
would call himself swinging on me. They can close the door because
I'm gonna put his ass on the floor. He don't need to worry about what
happened between me and my son. Worry about what's gonna happen
to your son and your ass if you run up on me. I wish that mother****er
would call himself coming up on me. I don't know where he was shot
at, but I bet it wasn't worse than when I got shot. I'm gonna break his
ass down, so I hope he didn't get shot in the body," Mayweather Sr.
fired back. "Then again, I'm gonna hit him on the ****ing chin anyway,
so it don't matter. Mother****er was talking **** about Lil' Floyd and
that ain't gonna go down. He say he ****ing 30-0 in the streets? He
can get ready to be 30-1 because I don't **** around. I will be 60
years old on March 15th and I bet you I will break any mother****ing
50-something-year-old mother****er down. It don't matter how old he
is. I will be at all the press conferences and when he see me, he better
be ready. None of that street talking **** scare me, mother****er. He
better check my reputation. Like I said, they better close the door and
give him room to fall if that mother****er get in my face, because I'm
gonna whoop his ass and you can mark my words on that. Watch what
I tell you. He getting into some **** he ain't ready for. This was the
most exciting call I could have got, Percy."
